Abstract(s)
The gloss βαῖκαν· …. Κρῆτες is usually treated as corrupt. In this paper the author suggests that it should be read as βαίκ'· ἄν. Κρῆτες. The dialectal form βαίκα, as well as its elided variant βαίκ', corresponds to Attic εἰ ἄν (also ἐάν, ἄν, Ionic ἤν) and represents the Cretan conjunction ϝαι 'if' (= Doric αἰ, Attic-Ionic εἰ) connected with an enclitic particle κα (= Epic and Aeolic κε, Doric κα).
